CityWest Homes has very strict rules on dog ownership.

If you want a dog, you must first get our permission. We only give permission to residents who live on the ground floor and who have a private garden. Anyone who has permission must also ensure that the dog carries identification and is kept under control at all times. The dog must not cause a nuisance or  be a danger to anyone. You must also make sure that it doesn’t foul the common parts. Dog mess is a health hazard and you could face a fine if you don’t scoop a poop.

If you feel that you are the victim of anti-social behaviour involving a dog please contact your local estate office who will be pleased to help. They will investigate your complaint and agree an action plan with you to address the problems.

These might include the following:

• If you see a dog somewhere it is not permitted to be,
• If your quality of life is being affected by a dog which is constantly barking, howling or whimpering
• If there are problems with dog excrement
• If you are fearful because of aggressive dogs
• If you are concerned about dogs fighting or damaging communal property

If you have a complaint about a dangerous dog or a banned dog please contact the Police on 0300 123 1212.
